Atheists have taken dishonesty to new and ludicrous heights by pretending to have sought high and low for evidence that God exists and, supposedly failing to find such evidence, have wandered off into the darkness mumbling that "there ain't no God." The problem being with this scenario, of course, is that the so-called evidence they have "examined" has been hand-selected to provide the pre-determined desired "proof" of the lack of God's existence. All evidence which WOULD prove the existence of God is, on one bogus pretext or another, disallowed. God is perfectly capable of proving His own existence--the problem is He can only work with open minds.

If atheists were REALLY interested in proof of God's existence, each one of them would look within themselves, find out what the inner need is which drives them to deny the obvious, get that need healed or met as the case may be, and start living like rational children of God. That worked well for me.

All RIGHT. This is just one big steaming pile of fail. A minor point:I know many atheists, and I only know one who says \"ain't.\" That's my boyfriend, and on pain of tolerating the utter loss of his girlfriend's mind, he would never stoop so low as to say \"ain't no.\"So, while we are all perfectly aware that you are attempting to portray nonbelievers as morons, no. You fail. A lot.

Bow, God! Bow before the apparently unlimited power of my closed-mindedness! Clearly it is the only thing preventing him from materializing in the modern world, performing universe-altering miracles, and ending all suffering! I am the immovable object to his unstoppable force! I am the only thing preventing everlasting happiness from embracing the globe, because I happen to find some parts of the bible to be, in my experience, a bit dubious!

That's right. All he has to do is appear on the Six O'Clock News. Has He ever done that? No. He's invisible, intangible and undetectable, and yet He expects us to believe in Him and punishes us for disbelief. Read Antony Flew's description of the Invisible Gardener. How does an invisible, intangible God differ from no God at all? In 2,500 years, no one has come up with a successful proof that God exists, and likewise, no one has come up with a proof that He doesn't exist. Ephraimanesti is not likely to succeed where so many smarter than he have failed.

For the billionth time: The burden of proof of your god rests with you to prove it, not with us to disprove it. We don't have to go looking for evidence of the thing you say exists. We simply sit back and watch as you fail to produce any. We're not the one's claiming that an invisible angry sky fairy is going to fry us for eternity, why should we be required to prove it for you?

Don't forget, the fundie God is also allergic to the tiniest human sin. He feels icky if any of the flawed creatures that were the apex of His creation come near Him. However, If you appreciate the fact that he let some of the other flawed creatures torture his one and only son to death, then you're \"clean.\"

If God doesn´t manifest himself to our eyes, there is no way in which he can work with \"open mindness\". It´s more natural to believe that there is probably no god or gods than there is one or several. However, we´ll never find someone who can demostrate or refute its existence.

All evidence which WOULD prove the existence of God is, on one bogus pretext or another, disallowed.

And you know this, because you want to believe it's that way?

@ephraimanesti:

Not really, most Christians usually say you have to basically believe in God before you are going to get any \"evidence\". That's not an open mind. That's wishful thinking, which evidently leads to a closed mind.

I'm not denying the obvious and you are not being rational.

Anyhow, the inner need is the need for truth. I don't want want to lie to myself just to make myself feel good (nor bad, if you are into self-flagellation). I rather deal with the reality. As far as I'm concerned this is very healthy. It's you who could use some healing.
